Established in 1437, in the vibrant heart of Venice,
the Scuola Grande di San Marco has intertwined its destiny with that of the Spezieria di San Marco, becoming the custodian of an ancient and precious art: the art of apothecary.
At one time, Venetian Spezierie were workshops-laboratories where botanists and alchemists transformed natural herbs and essences into medicines and elixirs of life.
Under the noble gaze of the Marcian Lion, eternal symbol of Venice and protector of its history, St. Mark’s Spezieria evokes that golden age.
School settlement Great next to the Basilica and the Dominican Monastery.
Expenses for medicines began to become high, and the Apothecary began to produce medicines independently for internal and external use.
